    Lmfao! No amount of exercise or diet will remove my twinskin and stretch marks left by my first pregnancy.

    Soooo um yeah without plastic surgery there is no way I could ever look like that no matter what I did.

    I just have gotten tired of if you just work out you will love it!?!? really last time i did a work out i couldn't move for 2 days! i like to eat cookies and spaghetti. 

    i hate her and people who can get skinny and who can look good. i love that they can do it and am proud of them for doing it. but i just wish i could do it and still eat good food and not have to do crazy workouts for hours a day!

    You want to see what a real momma looks like?

    Go here: http://theshapeofamother.com/

    I mean yes good for her but like I said I could never look like that after carrying my twins! No way, no how!

    I have come to realize that most women look a lot more like me than her after having a baby and you know what? For the most part I am ok with that. My body grew 2 beautiful babies and is in the process of growing a 3rd. That to me is a beautiful accomplishment even if it left me with a roadmap of stretchmarks on my belly and lovely hanging skin.

    @llb I submittedan entry to SOAM last year :)

    Honestly, she looks great and good for her, but there isn't any need for the "what's your excuse?" crap. It's just rude, and it makes her seem insecure. Like, you need to make others feel bad to feel some kind of personal validation? Sure, you've got nice abs, but what's going to help with your hideous personality? Maybe I feel really sexy even with my stretch marks and my cesarean scar and my kinda saggy boobies. I have confidence and love my body despite what motherhood has changed about it, and let me tell you, that takes a hell of a lot more strength than working out.

    I don't look like that, but I don't need to have an excuse, either. Does she have great kids that she loves, or does she just use then to show off how fit she is? I have different priorities....

    I mean, good for her and all (even though I doubt she's that perfect IRL) but the caption just makes me wanna taco kick her. We're all different. I have NEVER looked like that. Even at a buck twenty I was still curvy and soft. Muscular, but no fitness model for sure. What a bitch.

    @Grits I about spit my bagel out on the screen... Taco kick, LMAO!

    The problem here is the caption... You can take it one of two ways, it can be an inspiration or it can be a dig.  I appreciate the message, but I think it was expressed in the wrong way.

    And besides, I didn't look like that when I was playing college soccer 6 days a week.  There's GOT to be some genetics in there... Lucky %^&$* (I say that with a smile on my face... A non snarky smile).  Some folks just win the genetic lottery.

    What's my excuse? I'm not making any excuses. I LIKE my body, thank you very much. If YOU think I need to make excuses because I don't look like you, maybe that is YOUR problem, not mine! The implication that *that* body is better than *this* body is really fucking offensive to me. I wish she would also post her cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, and while we're at it, her IQ number as well. ***massiveeyerollohlookthebackofmyhead***

    Yeah. I just bought a Sharing Size bag of Pretzel M&Ms and...I didn't share. Whatever. I like my body. My partner likes my body. 

    How many hours do you think she spends in the gym instead of with her kids? Do you think she has a healthy relationship to good food?

    @yesjenny  Weird... I have that same size bag in my purse right now... Only mine are the peanut butter ones.  NOM.  

    Meh.  I like junk food now too much to completely rid myself of it.

    Is that photo for real? haha.  I can't even imagine a world in which this photo could be a reality.  I think someone else must be raising her children or something!  I just don't look at photos like this.

    My excuse is if I did work out to get that body and I'd never see my kid. I'd rather be a good mom than a stick with no personality.
    Not to get technical but those kids aren't climbing all over her or even looking at her. Anyone else think that's odd? If it were dd I'd have to carrying her I could never get her to look at the camera if I was that close

    "Tough talking helped me love weight!", said no one ever.

    I get eating healthy and moving as much as you can is important. I'm working on it everyday. Some days I rock it like it's my job. Somedays it's hard for one reason or another. But tough talking me and criticizing me when you have no idea whether I'm trying or not will not help, does not help and is a sure fire way to be yourself punched. (How's that for a work out!)

    I'm as sexy as a burp mid-kiss. Watch out!

    I really do not get this need to be skinny and muscular like a man?, a woman needs curves! She has a boy like shape?, and her legs have CLEARLY been made smaller by photoshop and everything on her is edited? MY excuse is I want to feel like a woman and be thick curvy and sexy, the question is what's YOUR excuse for feeling the need to work out and have photoshopped pictures purely to fit in with what you 'should' look like to be attractive?

    If someone does have 1kid... or even10 kids... & looks like that... awesome.... good for them....

    But to post pictures of it, with comments basically just to make other women feel bad... that's when I'm going to judge you as a bitch...

    So yeah... fuck you Maria Kang.
